TRUSTING
THE LORD IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES
LORD, the
political, economic and social winds in our nation, as well as nations around
the world are howling in epic proportions, especially attempting to blow aside
established political institutions. At
times, it can be troubling. The word of
the LORD admonishes me in Isaiah 26:3-4 (NKJV) with these encouraging words, “You
will keep him (her) in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he (she)
trusts in You. Trust in the LORD
forever, for in YAH, the LORD, is everlasting strength.” Then Psalm 91:1-2 (NKJV) continues to be encouraging
with the following words, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High SHALL
ABIDE (LIVE) under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, ‘He is my Refuge and my Fortress; my God, in Him
I will trust.’’’ I trust You, LORD and
Your powerful word because You are my Refuge, my Fortress and my God. The word of God in 2 Corinthians 4:18 reminds
me that, “While we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things
which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things
which are not seen are eternal.” Therefore,
no matter what is going on, I can trust You, LORD GOD because You are still in
control of all that You made in this Earth realm. Finally, in Psalm 62:5-8 the word of the LORD
reiterates and encourages me in this manner, 5 “My soul, wait silently for God
alone, for my expectation is from Him. 6 He only is my Rock and my Salvation; He
is my Defense; I shall not be moved. 7 In God is my Salvation and my Glory; the
Rock of my Strength, and my Refuge, is in God.
8 Trust in Him at all times, you people; pour out your heart before Him;
God is a Refuge (Safe Place) for us. Selah (pause and calmly think of that)!” LORD, I am always expecting you to DO and BE
all that You said in Your word you would BE. Thank You for being my Rock, my Salvation, my
Defense, my Glory, my Strength and my Refuge.
You are all that my Family and I need.
I love You LORD and I honor You for Your goodness toward us.
